9 Causes of and 7 ways to 'Fight the Freshman 15'
This is not about fighting 15 freshmen. It's about fighting the freshmen 15 - the 15lbs that most freshmen in college put on because:

1. mom doesn't cook for them anymore

2. they are always on the go - eating snacks and high-fat foods

3. they think pizza is a diet staple

4. they have no regular exercise program - who has time with partying and, well, partying? Oh...and studying, too?

5. anxiety - nervous eatingfreshmen.15.jpg

6. homesickness - can't have mom's cooking, so they eat what they want

7. all-you-can-eat cafeterias - no portion control

8. alcohol

9. late night meals

What to do -

1. create a regular exercise routine - a 24 hour rec center makes it convenient to go between classes. Who cares if you are sweaty for the next class? It's better than being fat for the next class.

2. eat small meals, several times a day instead of just one - whenever!

3. do NOT skip breakfast

4. avoid sweets at night

5. eat your fruits and veggies

6. go easy on the booze and soda

7. visit your school's recreation and wellness center, take notes and follow through

How much weight did you gain your freshmen year in college?
